Rückkehr

"What, if some day or night a demon were to steal after you into your loneliest loneliness and say to you: 'This life as you now live it and have lived it, you will have to live once more and innumerable times more' ... Would you not throw yourself down and gnash your teeth and curse the demon who spoke thus? Or have you once experienced a tremendous moment when you would have answered him: 'You are a god and never have I heard anything more divine.'"
~ Friedrich Nietzsche [The Gay Science, §341]

Saudade

Album: Intermezzo
Year: 2008
Track: 10 Saudade
Time: 06'44''

According to the experts, Saudade is "one of 7 more difficult words to translate in the world".
Its a genuine Portuguese word for "a feeling of nostalgic longing for something or someone that one was fond of and which is lost."
A feeling, I tried to describe in this piece (written in January 2008) inspired by  some of Robert Doisneau photographs.

In This World

I was invited to compose a song for an album that brings together composers from across the globe.
This project called "Babel Sin Fronteras" is led by mexican musician Jorge Estrada and seeks to establish bonds of unity through music.
Nature, universe, war, loneliness, sadness and joy are some of the themes included on "In This World", the album which will be later
made available on the Internet for FREE download.
